We have a lot of Liquidamber trees around here and see a lot of these seed pods on the ground. They have a very interesting shape and you've captured it well! :-) CJ

Thanks for the positive words.

"Congratulation on a very clean sensor" - LOL. When I opened this in PS my first thought was, "Whoa! I gotta clean my sensor!" So I used then best ever and most effective sensor cleaning tool. That would be the clone tool in PS! I have since gotten out my pec pads, 91% isopropyl alcohol, and custom cleaning wand and, after three gos at it, I now have a very clean sensor.

Congratulation on a very clean sensor Pops.

Nice simplicity, well done and not even so much as the slightest hint of 'that' place either... ;-)

Interesting conveyors of seeds these vessels... another of Mother Nature's wonders and very well photographed. ~ Regards Melbob

Love the simplicity... and yes, that f/22.0 super-sharp shadow makes the pic! Well done!
